Good luck hashing this one out!
when using the phrase "early connection", are we referring to barrel/body connection?
I don't use blast motion, so unaware they used a poor metric but not surprised either.
Most important take away: (so far, back to reading)
One interesting data point to note is that MLB hitters have slightly less VEA/VBA change. As you will note in the second set of charts below – it just so happens that hitters with less than 10 degrees of change have better contact quality and overall performance. It is very possible that lower level players could possibly improve their performance by reducing their amount of flattening.
